[V8] Brake/Hydraulic Hoses

[Coleman, David]

In that case, if you happen to need a mid-atlantic-area hose repair shop, Benz Hydraulics in Delaware seems to be the exception.  The PS hose rebuilds they did for the V8 were done in 4 hours.  They also built some custom CIS fittings I needed for the VW racecar, within a couple days.

Let me know if I can provide further info.
